(NEWSER) – Talk about a good deed: A very kind man turned a winning lotto ticket in to Spanish officials rather than taking the money for himself. Now, lottery bosses are trying to find the winner of the $6.27 million prize, which dates back to last year; it was never claimed, the Localreports. Manuel Rieja González, who happens to be a lottery-ticket dealer himself, found the winning ticket on the counter of a lotto vendor different from the one where it was purchased.
